Raritan River Striper 25lbs 13ozs 9/22
My first thought when I woke up this morning was, Damn I gotta get to the river today, its the first day of fall and it looks like a Striper kind of day. I couldn't get to the river unless I followed my wife to my daughters game in Keyport today. That plan worked out quite well. The game ended at 1130 and I shot up 287 to the SOUTH BOUND BROOK FALLS.
Pull up to the parking spot and of course nobody's there, nobody's ever there when I'm there. Anyway, I start casting A very large BOMBER, the largest they make. 2nd cast into the expedition I hook up with a..................................STRIPER, and its a BIG MOFO!!! I can't even begin to explain what kind of battle this was in the semi high chocolate milk stained water. The fish is swimming up and down, back and forth and just does not want to come in. I'll just play her and she'll tire eventually. The battle lasted approximately 10 minutes and this fish had me down to my 12lb mono backing. Finally got the beautiful STRIPER in and weighed her up, 25LBS 13OZS somewhere around 38-39 inches in length. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I LIVE FOR THIS STUFF! TIGHT LINEZ!!!!!!!!!!!! YEA BUDDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
